Approximate Sunlight Lyrics - The People's Key - Bright Eyes

Used to dream of time machines 

Now it's been said we're post-everything 

As a child, imagining 

Neckties and coastlines 

I've seen the show, man, what a sight 

Drenched us in approximated sunlight 

The crowd was small and mostly blind, but kind 

You're too kind 

Now you are how you were when you were real 

Now you are how you were when you were real 

There you go again, on that circular trip 

Lick the solar plexus of some L.A. shaman 

I'm out of breath, I'd better sit 

Been living hard, living 

All I do is follow, just follow this hollow you around 

I wouldn't waste another thought 

On what is fair and what is not 

The Quinceanera dress she bought 

Was unstitched with bullets 

All the guests in the garden screamed 

Women and tires squealing 

Such opulence, such misery 

Unwinding, unwinding 

All I do is follow, just follow, just follow this hollow you around 

Now you are how you were when you were real
